Based on a relaxation practice - being in a bathtub and listening to underwater sounds, which often-times are left unnoticed. Water acts as an amplifier and allows to percieve sounds through the entire body, which, combined with its ability to make the body float, triggers a calming effect. A new ritual space is created as a communal island of relaxation in the concrete plateau of Althangrund, former and partially abandoned WU campus, filled with strange sounds.

Waterpillows
A drawing was made following the pattern of dropplets condensating on the outside of glass filled with ice. This pattern was then scaled to host the human body in various positions. Dropplets were manufactured into waterpillows, made by ironing together layers of PE film, which is wideley used in construction, filling with water and closing with a hair straightener.
